The National Union of
Mineworkers said it is extremely shocked that Kumba Iron Ore will be closing
down its Thabazimbi mine.
Yesterday Kumba confirmed that
it had started the consultation process to shut down the mine.
NUM Chief Negotiator at Kumba
Iron Ore Lucas Phiri said we believe that over 700 employees will lose their
jobs that translate to more than 8 000 families that will suffer.
Phiri said we will now
approach and engage the Department of Mineral Resources to intervene so that
this comes to an end.
